It's worth noting that high gas monotubes feel and ride *amazing* at speed. Nothing else compares. But because of the internal gas pressure, they don't do well at low speeds as they resist compression. It's not a matter of valving, so much as the gas pressure. More modern monotubes are integrating bypass valves so that the shocks will handle these conditions better. (Ohlins Road and Track for example.)
